We raise our kids using the same educational model that was in place back when we needed them to come out at 16, obedient and ready to work mindlessly screwing bolts onto cars for 8 hours a day, 6 days a week for 50 years.
Yes if we take those children and cut them lose with no one to tell them what to do, they will be lost. I don't think the problem is that we aren't giving people busy work to do. It's that we're raising them to psychologically depend on it. My wife literally thought she was worthless as a person because she didn't have a job for a few years. It's kind of disgusting.
